Synopsis

This is the true story of a little child called Patrick, who was one of five little brothers that came through, what seemed like a strange world full of bombs dropping, causing big fires and total destruction on a massive scale, every morning I would wake up to see new Wendy houses to play in not realizing someone lived there the day before, and the houses were still burning it was nice and warm, food was so scarce it was rationed so much so we had a plot of land where the family tried to grow our own food, sweets and fruit I did not see until I was 14yrs old, as for toy’s well you just made your own if you could, what the war failed to do was any damage to Manchester folks “wicked sense of humour”, that’s why to me they will always be the salt of the earth and I should know I am one of them.There is an old saying, you can take the child out of Manchester, but you will never take Manchester out of the child.The best way to give you an understanding about the war is this, if you can imagine that almost every single nation on this planet was involved in the fighting for 6 long years, with the exception of Spain Switzerland & Sweden who were neutral.

the real purpose of this book is EDUCATION EDUCATION EDUCATION
this is the story of my life, my experiences as a small child the telling of the real truth of that period of time? a copy of this book is now in the imperial War Museum North at Salford Quay's and is used as a teaching aid by interactors and teachers to teach local college students,school children and the general public about the war years. copies are also registered in the BRITISH library.
I have also developed a completely FREE of charge "memory lane chat show" that is designed to take you back to a time you thought you would never hear again including a small air raid, sirens and all followed by a carpet bombing air raid that will if you are the nervous type have you diving under the nearest table and probably needing a change of clothing as a result, its for all age groups from the age of 12 years old onwards right through to senior citizens clubs etc and any other organisation that wants to know the real truth.
it portrays a very sad story of a little boy called PATRICK, very funny in parts, sickly at times because it is a WARTS and ALL story.
